He kept gaining momentum, and by the time we were all ready to say, "OK, let’s get serious now. Who should really be president?" He was already being sworn into office. We weren’t paying attention. [[HeroicBSOD We weren't paying attention!]]

* SomeAnvilsNeedToBeDropped: The episode teaches the audience about the dangers of granting power to the loudest person, particularly those with dangerous views, and how complacency over the duty to oust the said person can only be noticed once it was too late.
